you still keen to get your beast checked out on DrDrifts dyno? i'm free all this week :D

It wont be happening for a few weeks, teh car still hasnt left the paint shop, so thesetup isnt back on proplery yet. It wont be happening before Dutton as i just wont have time, the only dyno time the thing will see is at the mechanic/tuners

new graph is up in the first post, the mechanic read it wrong as he only glanced over when he called me.... it was actually 270.8 which is bit lower but im still way happy... that was at around 21.5psi going down to 20psi up top

looks like a cliff though

they said it has potential for a lil more

yeah its externally gated with screamer

hks 256 cams... unsure on headwork

EDIT: just noticed but with the bov fixed n boost holding the 270 run spools a decent amount earlier

Any more info an air:fuels etc. How to the line has the thing been tuned. Quick run down to Wakefield and thrash it senseless and let me know how it goes...i want to run 20psi at Dutton which will net me around the mid 250-260rwkws.

Do you know the engine has pistons or not? Also curious to know what boost you are planning on running day to day...i hope your engine is stock as the response isnt really any different from mine when running the same boost...lol i wanna know ho much you can lean on the std engine.

hahaha

not sure on pistons but it was meant to have been rebuilt so i would assume so ... but who knows

ill be running it daily on 18/19 psi

ill have to try and get print out with af ratio's but i dont have one yet

well done dude. that's awesome power out of the RB20/22.

i have a Trust TD06-25G kit sitting in the garage which i wouldn't mind putting on my car but i'm afraid it will be too laggy.

maybe i should put the RB24 together ;-)

These engines always amaze me. From what I have seen boost control and tuning i.e timing have major impacts and can make some peoples results seem meek to what I assume could be there true potential. Goes for all engines I guess.

Was there any major boost control changes and/or tuning changes in the bottem end of the run from the 230 to 270kw runs?

Comparing razors 230 graph to Roys 230 graph if anything roys is better down low indicating maybe it isnt 2.2 but maybe it is?. At ~106km/h raz has 13psi as does roy, but roy has about 125rwkw where raz has about 112rwkw.

But bring in the 270 run and its like a different car altogether. 106km/h has 150rwkw and 20psi, the 13psi was reached at approx 99km/h this time?

I encountered the exact same thing with mine. Power started at about 170rwkw,then 200, then 230, then 280rwkw. Each time power increased my boost was increased (same turbo all along) but the boost threshold never changed. Off the spring it has 7-8psi which hits at about 4,000rpm and with the 280 run it spikes to 24psi and then settles at 20psi but once again its all in by 4,000rpm?

The major difference according to my tuner was that he used in his words "a shit load more timing" across the board to bring things on earlier and be more responsive and compensated by keeping the a/f ratios at a sane level. My a/f plot peaks at 11.5:1 and at full noise is 11.2:1.

Would love to overlay our graphs as my engine is also an unknown with many beleiving its stroked as well but my plot is in rpm not km/h.

After all that, once again congratulations on your result. I'm sure Carlh has been lurking and waiting to bombard us all lol. Hope he gets the triple tonne.

the only difference in the 230 / 270 runs was the 230 one the bov was leaking... it was plated off and boosted up.. thats why there wasnt the big drop in boost as comapred in the 230 run

i am hoping it will spool like the 270 run with the bov fixed

thanks and yeah it will be awesome when an rb20 runs 300

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
